Splitting clips depends on Snap settings, if Snap is on - not Now Time position. Turn Snap off to split anywhere. Milton's issue looks like something else, tho. BTW, some left-handed people switch mouse buttons to mirror right-handed operation.

2nd workaround instead of using bends is to extending 1st note slightly over 2nd note for smoother transitions.

I took that to mean overall scaling, not individual element scaling. But we'll see.

1. path names are cut short on both 2, only the scan window is affected. When it shrinks it's too small to read - posted screenshot is bigger than real life - reposted smaller one. 3. Windows 11 added round corners. I moved the smaller window which turned it blue then made an animated gif. This also happens on my Windows 10 laptop. Always thought it was because I use 2 monitors, but still happens with only one. Both laptops have dual video cards which might be confusing it for some unknown reason.

While scanning plugins manually, the scan window shrinks about halfway thru the scan. Happens with or without a 2nd monitor. Any ideas why? updated screenshots Happens on Windows 10 & 11 laptops that use a 2nd video card for 2nd monitor.

Pitch bending works in SI Bass very nicely. But when I apply it to SI Strings I get some pretty weird results making it almost unusable. It seems to have more trouble with pitch bends than other softsynths. I've tried PRV cc wheel events and automation envelopes triggering the Strings "Tune" function, but they all result in some pretty weird behavior. I don't know if it's the DAW or the plugin, but Cakewalk/Sonar often tries to end a pitch bend earlier than it should. My workaround is to extend the OFF cc beyond the end of the note or cut the note short. For SI Strings it's a distance from 1:090 to 2:000 using 120 ppq. This doesn't work when another note comes immediately afterward. Workaround here is to create a 2nd track with 2nd synth so bending notes don't affect flat notes. Anyone else experience this ???

"90% of all crashes and upsets can be traced back to a plugin." It all makes sense now. My trusty DAW keeps crashing/shutting down unannounced to prevent ME from suffering further harmful effects of my ... effects! Who's a good boy? Who?!

CMIIW, but it seems Yamaha uses the same samples in most of their XG gear but alter them slightly for each model so they sound slightly different. When layering the S-YXG50 with another Yamaha like the PSR540 using the same voice, it brings out a new dimension to the sound.

Windows Explorer used to report audio file bit rate AND sample size ("bit depth") AND sample rate, but then removed the last 2 from the list a few versions ago. CbB reports sample size ("bit depth") in Project > Audio Files... Windows reports "bit depth" only for graphic files.

I am unable to comment w/o incriminating myself. It appears I spoke too soon as I still get occasional typing anomalies. Never happened before win11.

This is X1 PE with the empty preset I made in 2012. It loads without incident. I think it was made by loading an old .wrk file in X1 which presented a blank PC, then saved as a preset. It still works in X1d PE but not in X3, SPlat, or CbB. It was discussed in the old forum and then "fixed" in X2 or X3 I think. Empty.pcp Meet me at the bank tomorrow morning...

True. There must be a reason they disabled the 'no module' preset, tho. And the blank text.pcp file doesn't hurt anything. It only throws an error flag because there's no instructions for CbB to load anything. BTW, they stopped using pcp in the 60's because it made people agitated, delusional, and irrational.

easy-peasy. tho it used to be in Sonar you could load a pre-X series project and PC would be empty.

Not forgetting. Just realizing "All good things.... "? Seems lately windows 11 and app updates are breaking the things I use.

Yeah, don't know why it won't work anymore.

I've got a box with about 20 different power bricks I've collected over the past 20 yrs from selling stuff w/o their adapters cause I couldn't figure out which goes with what, I'll sell ya.

There are several sfz & sf2 players that work in CbB.

Tired of Windows 11 & software updates breaking things! Wonder if Yamaha S-YXG50 works in 2023.09? If not, doubt I'll update.

Way back this was possible by creating an "empty" preset. But this preset no longer works in current versions. You can load the smaller compact module tho.

Of course it's all APP's fault for inspiring such ideas!

Prob'ly why my CC gets compromised now & then.

Dust collects on everything, especially electronics. I've seen huge dust bunnies inside computers so it's good to check regularly. Desktops can be easily cleaned inside with canned air. Laptops are more susceptible to dust and should be checked & cleaned more often.

Since using Windows 11 I noticed foreign language letters & symbols appearing out of nowhere and words being run together without spaces when typing. Apparently this was because "Windows is using artificial intelligence to help you type", which is ON by default. Settings > Time & language > Typing > Typing Insights > On/Off. Key word is ar-ti-fi-cial: made or produced by humans. IOW, not real, imitation, fake, knock-off, etc. Disable it and typing returns to normal. IOW, real, natural, readable, understandable, etc. EDIT: ... until it doesn't. Not sure now why it's happening, but going back to Windows 10 has certainly solved it for the moment.

I have seen no benefit or improvement in 11. Just the opposite for me. I prefer 10 but updates will eventually cease. And some older systems can't run 11.
